NuCanoe Buyer's Guide
Good inventions are built from a desire to share an idea. Great inventions are built from a passion – an insatiable thirst to share a personal love with everyone around you. In 2006, Tim Niemier set out to put “a billion butts in boats.” From his ambition and partnership with Blake Young, NuCanoe was built.
Based in Bellingham, WA and roto-molded in Oostburg, WI, more than 95% of the parts and accessories to make NuCanoe boats are made in the USA. Whether you are an angler, hunter, rower, diver, or pleasure-cruiser, NuCanoe has a kayak to fit your lifestyle.
Paddle – Pedal – Power
Versatility is critical with NuCanoe Fishing Kayaks. Any model, any time, NuCanoe kayaks can be paddled, pedaled, or powered. The switch is easy and does not require drilling holes in your kayak. This is important for owners who want to start small and upgrade over time without drilling into their kayaks.
No matter if you are in a Flint, Frontier, Pursuit, or Unlimited, each NuCanoe kayak can be powered by any means at any point you own it. NuCanone wants to UNLIMIT Your Experience on the water. Let’s take a look at a few of their kayaks and find the best fit for your needs.
